did you read anything I wrote? I said the mechanic will do them when he has time, or when it’s made a priority by management. I am trying to help the guy by telling him how things work in automotive.. our management is concerned with their numbers not your comfort.
Right or wrong he pissed the guy off writing these up continuously, you would be pissed too if you had to go find each truck make sure the factory blower fan works and sign the books off, probably multiple times from the sound of it.
The defrost fan the truck came equipped with is a FED item and the truck is not supposed to be on the road without it, a comfort fan is not a required item, as far as UPS is concerned get your ass in the truck and go... if you don’t like it and it says in your contract you can request one then file a grievance and eventually they will tell the mechanic to make sure these get installed.
they don’t just let us work overtime we only have OT when management tells us ahead of time and they look over the repairs done with a microscope on OT.. installing fans on OT would get it pulled for the whole district, lol What is OT anyway we have not had OT since mid December in my district.
